At the very beginning it wasn't clear that Chuck was there or that it was Mrs McGill. So for a couple of seconds after the nurse asked about the priest and before Chuck was revealed I thought it was Chuck's deathbed.
i was kind of hoping it was- then Chuck's final words to Jimmy "you never were a real lawyer".. :flatline:
Gus isn't working for Hector. Hector killed his lover by the pool years ago. He's working on his own agenda and doesn't want Mike to interfere.
Yep.
Loved the season, but thought where they left us hanging wasn't a good season finale stopping point. Would've been a good "lead-in to the finale" episode, IMO.
Wasn't paying attention to commercials and had no idea this was it for the year.. so when "Talking Saul" came on my first thought was.. wait.. That was the finale?
It was obvious Chuck was setting Jimmy up at the end.. IMO, a better ending would have been to have Kim standing there behind the Shiny Curtains, maybe herself holding the recorder..
As you said would have been a great lead in to a "real" finale.
Anybody that doesn't like this show (including this season) probably wishes they made Cliffs Notes for Animorphs books.

This is the problem with you millennials!
You all want the BIG payoff with fireworks and an AH-HA moment!

Breaking Bad could be very slow at times but it always had tension. It always felt like something was at stake. Also, lots of things happened.

Using BB as an example, while the show was awesome, it still had problems. You could re-watch the show, fast forward through just about any part that Skyler was in and still enjoy the show (and maybe even enjoy more). Her appearance became a distraction rather than an enhancement of the show.
I'd like to see it go on for 20 years in three separate stages. First we have the events leading up to the Breaking Bad timeline. Then we have Gene the Cinnabon Manager. Finally, the show goes into American Horror Story mode where Bob Odenkirk and Johnathan Banks get completely new characters and storylines each season.
Gus isn't protecting Hector because they're not exactly BFFs. He doesn't shoot Mike because he wants to hire him.
I was in the minority.
BB was slow?

1. It could almost certainly be used in court. It's a statement against interest and since chuck isn't a state actor there's no 4th or 5th amendment protectionsOfficer Pete Malloy said:

My DVR started late as well. I had to watch off my cable's "On Demand" feature to see the beginning.Nathan R. Jessep said:
You may not be suggesting that I was suggesting there's a "good" case here against jimmy either in the criminal court or with the state bar, but in the event you are, to clarify, I'm not suggesting the taped confession, given the context it was made, makes a good case against jimmy in the criminal court or with the bar. I was merely answering tanners questions.
Based on many of the comments I've read about the finale, I need to throw this out there - it's common for shows like this to have the penultimate episode be the 'real' finale and for the actual finale to be a little disappointing.snogger said:

when he confessed. Ugh, you big dummy.
at how angry some of you guys are getting over people not being as riveted as you are. Get over yourselves.
What felt good was the week before when kim railed into chuck in his own home about how he treats his brother jimmy...which evidently fell on deaf ears
Well..that's not true either:Hang 10 said:
Agreed. There's slow boring and there's slow yet detailed and nuanced. This show for my tastes is riveting even without action because of how it's constructed and plays out. That scene where Mike was trying to get a bead on Hector was awesome. No talking, didn't pull the trigger yet I still loved it.Ditkaless Wonders said:
Yea he would just change his name to Saul, not re-take the bar. He might have to justify it to the board, I dunno.Serious question here....so we all know at some point Jimmy will make the turn into Saul...and we know from Breaking Bad that Saul practices in Albuquerque and is in the public eye with commercials and whatnot. So it's pretty safe to assume that nothing happens legally to Jimmy....however is there any law that prohibits you from advertising under one name but holding all of your legal credentials in another? I mean it's pretty far fetched that Jimmy would legally change his name to Saul and then take the bar again...right?
